Unless there is a way to have the Quantity link show up even if not logged
in.

I have to throw the towel a bit here, I'd expect that if you'd remove the
[if ] tag regarding the dealer that it then would apply to everybody else ..
But then I think it depends on how your settings are regarding the
CommonAdjust, I suppose there are ways that it only counts for logged in
visitors and ways to have it applicable for all visitors ... It sounds like
you already have quite a complex set up so it will not be easy to just
suggest some changes (at least not by me).
